Promise not to tell / a novel by Jennifer McMahon.
Forty-one-year-old school nurse Kate Cypher has returned home to rural Vermont to care for her mother who's afflicted with Alzheimer's. On the night she arrives, a young girl is murdered - horrific crime that eerily mirrors another from Kate's childhood. Three decades earlier, her dirt-poor friend Delshunned and derided by classmates as "Potato Girl" was brutally slain. Del's killer was never found, while the victim has since achieved immortality in local legends and ghost stories. Now, as this new murder investigation draws Kate irresistibly in, her past and present collide in terrifying, unexpected ways. Because nothing is quite what it seems . . . and the grim specters of her youth are far from forgotten.
